How to use a Face Shield for CPR

In Australia, the recommendation for CPR includes performing rescue breaths, or mouth to mouth resuscitation. This creates a risk of transferring fluids between rescuer and casualty, and in doing so there is a possibility of transmitting disease. A face shield is a personal protective equipment (PPE) device that can be used during CPR performing rescue breaths. It is an alternative to a resuscitation mask (pocket mask). A face shield can also be called a CPR shield or face mask. This is not to be confused with a barrier mask used to prevent viral transmission. A face shield, or CPR face mask, is essentially a plastic sheet with a fabric section containing a non-return valve. It is of a size to place over the face of a person in need of resuscitation and can help protect the rescuer from any fluids that may be present in and around the mouth of the casualty. #cpr #firstaid #faceshield #australiawidefirstaid #ppe
